How to attach source of JSF implementation? [message #475405] Mon, 04 February 2008 17:05 Go to next message

The problem I'm having here probably isn't JSF-specific, but since I ran
into it with respect to the JSF implementation, perhaps someone here has
run into this.

I've created a dynamic web app, with JSF 1.2 as one of the facets. As a
result, the JSF implementation (Sun's) is not available as a normal User
Library. I guess it has to be this way in order for the JSF tooling to
work. The problem I'm having is that I want to debug something in the JSF
implementation by stepping through the code. Strangely, the IDE is
preventing me from attaching the source for the JSF implementation. I can
edit the source reference, but it doesn't get stored. When I click OK on
the dialog and then reenter project properties and look at it again, the
setting is empty again.

Similarly, if I try to view a particular class file from the
implementation and then click the "Attach Source" button and enter the
root of the JSF source tree, it doesn't do anything. It doesn't "fail",
it just has no effect.

This is a problem about the wtp from the 2.0 maybe.
I solve this by using define a "User Library", It is work just like
the normal way.

define the user lib and add this library to your project.

I use this way a long time, it work fine, In the user library, you
can attach the javadoc and source, Work fine.
Hope can help you..

Can you walk me through the "as a result" part? The JSF 1.2 facet should
not stop you from having anything that you want on your classpath. One
issue that arises with JSF 1.2 is that if you are using a JavaEE
container, then the JSF runtime is expected to be already there, so in the
JSF libraries setup you can select "Server Supplied JSF Implementation" to
indicate you don't want your own on the classpath. Then you need to be
sure that your target runtime container is on the classpath. You can do
this from the new project wizard or afterward by going to the Project
Properties menu and going to "Targeted Runtime". Your selected runtime
should show up in the Navigator (either right under the project in the
Package Explorer or under Java Resources/Libraries in the JavaEE Project
Explorer).

I know this doesn't address your source attachment problem, but hopefully
goes a little further toward explaining our intent. Note that in this
situation, JSF libraries are still useful (your source attachment bug not
withstanding) for deploying third-party components like Trinidad.

How do you get the library to deploy? Do you still need to check it for
deployment in the J2EE module dependency properties?
